- Do not bite hard or chew on new silver fillings for 24 hours. White fillings set quickly so chewing is permissible right away.
- The gum tissue close to the restoration or at the anesthesia site may be tender for several days. A warm salt water rinse will relieve discomfort and aid healing.
- While numb avoid biting or chewing your tongue, or the inside of your cheeks or lips.
- Immediately after restoration, you may experience some slight sensitivity to hot or cold, this is normal, but should disappear in a few days.
- If your bite feels higher than normal or is bite sensitive, contact our office for a follow-up adjustment appointment.
